Football:

November 2nd is the date that members of the Boys Club are getting together to move all the remaining football equipment from Bob Williams shed to the new storage area at the High School.

The football banquet was on Monday October 30th. It was held in the High School cafeteria. The banquet went well. Mark’s Market catered the food and it was very good. Boys Club was charged $7.25 a plate. Coaches and players were free, all others we charged $5.00. We had 42 players in attendance and 50-60 parents and siblings.

This now concludes the 2006 Pardeeville Boys Club Football Season. What a great season!
